Nire's Desire Techno Collection Part Two: For An Angel

I saved Nire's Desire For An Angel for the Finale of my review of Nire's Desire Techno Collection Part 2. For An Angel is a bright purple infused with a hint of blue (nope, in my view it is NOT blurple), a strong mostly blue and red holo and a soft purple shimmer.

I applied two coats of Nire's Desire For An Angel over Butter London Patent-Gel Base Coat (which I used for all of my Nire's Desire swatches this week). The formula is fit for an angel - simply perfection! While Nire's Desire For An Angel is very pigmented I ALWAYS opt for two coats to smooth my ridges. For all of my swatches of Nire's Desire Techno Collection Part Two I used Glisten&Glow HK Girl Top Coat to finish my manis.

Final thoughts: Nire's Desire For An Angel is in my eyes at the head of the Totem Pole of this collection: Intricate and bold it is no wallflower shade yet comes with a depth that sets it apart from a spur of the moment shade.

Overall I have to say Techno Collection Part Two is a must for lovers of blue, teal and purple holos. I love Erin's concept of staying over at one corner of the color scheme and plays with the shades and tones within. I love Erin's creations of holos with an icing so to say, her creativity to come up with unique base colors and her dedication to release a collection of equally perfect formulas. The only down side is the slightly slower drying time and the need to wait a couple of minutes in between applying the second coat. But else - simply wonderful!!!

Thank you sis xxx! Shocking this color, no? I was totally surprised how much it lit up once out in the bright sun - and absolutely no staining of the nails, which I found can happen quite frequently with blue purple holos - have a lovely start of the new week my dear friend <3
